Cannot import KiteConnect

NishithSavla

I have a script where I'm using KiteConnect version 4.2.0 and when I try to import it using,

from kiteconnect import KiteConnect

I get the following error

Traceback (most recent call last):

I have tried all the following solution:

• Updating all system packages using sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
  
• Upgrading pyopenssl using pip install pyopenssl --upgrade
  
• Installing libffi with sudo apt-get install libffi-dev
  

Can anyone please help me with this?

sudo apt-get install libffi-dev

I think, you need to install both libffi and libffi-dev.
Maybe you can try :
sudo apt-get install libffi6 libffi-dev
